French Haitians, also called Franco-Haitians (French: Haïtiens français) are citizens of Haiti of full or partial French ancestry. The term is sometimes also applied to Haitians who migrated to France in the 20th and 21st century and who have acquired French citizenship, as well to their descendants.
Colonization
The story begins with the issuing of French adventurers in the
Haitian massacres and slave revolt
For 1791, the first revolt of slaves and mulattos got up, which consisted blacks demanded their rights, to abandon slavery, and equal skin color, this fault with indignation in Paris and whites in Saint-Domingue the white man lynched blacks and mulattos that fell into their hands, no matter their gender or age.[1] Then another stood up to 1804, this time led by the slaves: Toussaint Louverture and Jean-Jacques Dessalines, but this what slaves joined and massacred in a brutal form to whites who lived in the colony, as well as their descendants in that colony. This produced a notable reduction of French people in Haiti.
